“I'm really influenced by Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly.”

“You watch these reality shows and say, 'Oh, I would do that, except for eating all the gross stuff.' These reality shows are like everyone's little guilty pleasure. To have an opportunity to be on one, why not? Anybody who says, 'No, I don't want to be on one' is kind of lying in the back of their heads.”

“I was on tour with Michael Jackson for a while; I did the 'Dangerous' and 'History' tours. I was also on tour with Diana Ross.”

“From a very early age, as far back as I can remember, I always played sports.”

“When I first moved to L.A. as a dancer, all I wanted to do was dance. I never even considered trying to act or direct.”

“I grew up abroad, so I would love to have my child grow up the same way and experience the world.”

“I want to have the fairy-tale life with a wife and three or four kids. It will come.”

“The majority of people know me as a dancer, but they don't also know that I'm a director, a songwriter and a producer.”
